LGBT Families

RFC is proud to be a part of the LGBT community and to help same-sex couples in fulfilling their dreams of having a family. We understand the difficulties and stress patients face as they take on this journey. RFC staff promises to be with you every step of the way, delivering the highest quality of care to each patient. RFC provides fertility treatment ranging from IUI, IVF, egg donation, sperm donation, surrogacy, sperm freezing and egg freezing. Female same-sex couples will need sperm donation that can be from a friend, family member, or anonymous sperm donor. Male same-sex couples will need the help of an egg donor and surrogate mother to help them fulfill their family dream. New patients must have an initial consultation with the doctor to discuss the best treatment plans.

Male Same-Sex Couples

Male same-sex couples can build their family with the help of an egg donor and a surrogate. Egg donors will go through a cycle to retrieve eggs for donation. The donor eggs will be inseminated with their sperms to fertilize and create embryos. The embryo is then transferred into a surrogate to carry the pregnancy to full term. Egg donor and surrogate may be known or anonymous, but both need to go through extensive medical screenings to ensure their qualification.

Female Same-Sex Couples

Female same-sex couples have the option to decide who to donate the eggs to and to carry the pregnancy. They may also seek an egg donor as their egg source or a surrogate to carry the pregnancy. Depending on the couple’s decision, an IVF or IUI cycle will be performed. Sperm source may come from known donor or anonymous donor.

3rd Party Agency

LGBT family building requires third-party reproduction services in the form of egg donors, sperm donors, or gestational carriers(surrogates). RFC is committed to assisting our patients through this entire process, including matching you with a discreet, ethical and reputable egg donor, surrogacy agency, and/or sperm bank that fits your needs. RFC prides itself in working with some of the most respected third party agencies like OIC in the USA. Each candidate is given complete psychological and medical evaluations and must meet with legal counsel. RFC has worked with thousands of intended parents who have had successful outcomes through the egg donor/gestational carrier process.
